On HU
This week we finished up the Best Comics Poll with Robert’s concluding essay and the rest of the participant lists.
With the poll roll out finally completed, this seems like a good moment to thank Robert Stanley Martin. Robert put in an obscene amount of work organizing the polls, the essays, and the lists. It’s been an enormous undertaking, and I’ve been honored to help with it, and to have it hosted on HU. It’s been a great experience, and (if HU is still around then!) I’d be thrilled to do it again in 2021.

Robert Stanley Martin
Elements of the list and the participants have been alternatively surprising and frustrating, but thanks to Robert for all his efforts in putting it together.
I would also like to thank Robert. Once I read that he was putting all the links to the lists as well, I understood exactly how hard it was. That takes an amazing amount of patience and I thank you.
